I don't recall a specific topic about this. I've read a bunch of suggestions like the wooden knobs etc., but maybe we can place all ideas here, and Gregory can give us some feedback. 8) Ok, I wish for:

- brass bridge and tailpiece, preferably machined

I'm getting the (brass) JANI on my CS Thumb 5 NT someday, but I would love to have a brass bridge and tailpiece to complement the nut. Having a CNC machined bridge and tailpiece will give these parts an extra luxurious boost.
 
choice of tremolo. for example:getting the hybrid instead of the U.S. made one...
 
I hope to see WARWICK do this in the future.. but, it would be very crazy to make curved bodies for corvettes?? I think in this way, it would not be the younger brother of streamers and the thumbs! Although, not because of this, the people still like them!
 
Continuous wood control covers,built in tuner,ummm.More coffee.I've run out of ideas.
 
led knobs? :oops:

sorry i really didnt know what to say :D
 
I think gretsch has one of te most ingenious straplock systems ever. You basically put your strap on this screw, and screw it in its slot. Easy and reliable. I'd love to see something similiar, as I've had an accident with the stock straplocks on my bass =(
 
self correcting mechanism if you make a mistake playing it. 8)
 
Hand selection of (figured) wood like Bubinga Pommele and Buckeye Burl. Yeah, the offer of going to markneukirchen and hand picking the wood yourself is great, but not many will be able to do so....................And having all these beautiful blanks of wood on your screen must be seriously awesome and GAS inducing. This was discussed like over a half year ago, and I believe Warwick was considering this as well for an upcharge...................Check out how this is done with a Jerzy Drozd. :D





Now that's GAS inducing !!! :twisted:
 
GAS inducing is an understatement when it comes to Jerzy Drozd.

Yea that would be great well worth the drive down to Germany epically if you spending a few grand on a bass anyway.
 
i can no longer talk about my biggest CS gas without sounding like a total capy cat (due to cary and lex)

fretless 6 string SS1 is nearly perfect. chuck some wenge in the neck (as the bigger stripes) and it IS perfect...

Still dreaming of a fretless huh ?? I do wonder what fretless you will be getting. It's just a matter of time I guess............... :D
 
black chrome tuners, knobs, and bridges.. and the option to build a custom shop bass online. Show the woods, hardware, color and electionics all put together, kinda like a Jan mockup. :D
 
a semi-hollowed vampyre with F holes called "the raven" ... or vampyrnity (sounds like some perfume)
